When we say "staff reserved colors" that does not mean that the colors are reserved just for staff members to wear. What this means is that the rare colors are reserved for staff members to use. i.e. decorating. We only have 5 colors that are reserved for this use (Sapphire, Adamantium, Daemon Steel, Oceanic and Black).
The reason we do not allow the use of these colors, as Maka said, is so that they will remain rare. Players with a Sapphire dye tub will just color everything they own Sapphire. Not to mention all their friends stuff too. Then it becomes almost meaningless to have a set of Sapphire armor because the color has already been over used. This is something I feel strongly about (keeping rare things rare) so let's just accept this and move on to bigger and better things.
